Rosa

Rosa is 59 years old farm worker and a housewife. She suffers from the colon, arthritis,
hypertension, and high triglycerides. She is also diabetic, further complicating her general health.

Rosa just spent almost three weeks in bed with typhoid fever. In our examination, we found the remains of necrotic and infected teeth. She has spent 40 years without teeth.
